Black G35 "Before And After" Last week I had this "professional" mobile detailer come to my house to "professionally" detail my car for me, and in the end, all he ended up doing was covering my car with "professional" swirl marks. I ended up having to use a rubbing compound to get them out of my paint, and there are STILL some left, but they arent too noticeable. Anyways, let me know what you guys think.
BEFORE
Decklid/Wing

Fender/Hood
Roof
AFTER
Decklid/Wing
Hood
Fender/Door
Roof
Needless to say I'm extremely happy with the results. If anyone is interested, I used a Porter Cable for the polishing, first with Turtle Wax Rubbing Compound and an Orange Lake Country Pad, next I used Wolfgang Finishing Glaze with a White Pad, and finally I hand applied Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant, and removed everything with some micro fiber towels. It took the better part of a few days to get it done, but it was worth it. I also learned a lesson, if you want it done right, you should just do it yourself

Yea he used a porter cable...I'm guessing his rags were dirty or his pads had dried polish/wax/whatever on them. I guess if I look on the bright side, it gave me some good practice haha.
